Lawrence's Story
Life
After leaving Middlesex CC I worked at several places. I managed the Bedford, MA Radio Shack and worked for Coka Cola USE repairing soda fountains. (Including the ones in the VA in Bedford, full circle I guess)
After returning to college iin 1981 (Bunkerhill CC & U Mass Boston) I went to work for a small Bio-tech (Gentest) north of Boston. My short term job until I found something better just passed 21 years. The first five years we grew kind of slow but in 1997 we started doubling our sales every year. Five years ago we were bough By Beckton Dickinson and contine to grow. What we do is kind of hard to explain. Easiest is to say our tests and kits take the place of all those mice, rats, and rabbit use to screen drugs before they are developed for use on people. I manage day to day operations at our Woburn plant. A very high energy group. 75% female. Average age of 35. Lows of PHds. Even our dish washer has a degree (biotech from MCC).
I married Eilleen Rounds ...Expand for more
in Dec 1980 and we had a son Larry Jr. He has Down's syndrom, but functions pretty much normally ( especially around blonds). He works for a grocery store chain. Tony was born in 1983. He went to technicial HS for computers, is an Eagle Scout and currently attends Salem State and is majoring in chemistry. Mary was born in 1990. Is in the honors program at her high school, a member of the national honor society, runs cross country, does gymnastics, is a national champion cheerleader, is a member of the chess team (be carefull of that pretty face), and in a student commettee chair woman to the Ma board of Higher Education. (Is it any wonder her boy friend is a Physics major at WPI). Now you know why i have no hair left.
Eileen had been an LPN and this year graduated from Salem State with a BS in Nursing and is now an RN.
Of course there is a lot more. This crazy family is always up to something. And, some of the stories are even tellable.
And the saga continues....
